Journal ArticleDOI
Neurotrophic regulation of acetylcholinesterase in regenerating skeletal muscle
TL;DR: The results suggest that AChE in regenerating skeletal muscle is subject to neurotrophic regulation and not to neural regulation, as previously suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phencyclidine blocks two potassium currents in spinal neurons in cell culture.
TL;DR: The PCP-induced blockade of K+ currents in central neurons coupled with the profound synaptic effects of the drug may provide the basis for explaining the psychopathology of this hallucinogenic agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
The narcotic antagonist naltrexone has a biphasic effect on the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

TL;DR: Narcotic antagonist Naltrexone Nicotinic receptor Electrophysiology Single channel recording Channel activation Channel blockade
Journal Article
Specificity of excitation of muscle spindle afferents by cholinergic substances
TL;DR: It is concluded that the excitatory cholinergic agents (ACh, SCh, DMPP, nicotine) have different sites and/or mechanisms of action in causing stimulation of muscle spindle afferent activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ligand-gated ion channels in acutely dissociated rat hippocampal neurons with long dendrites.
Catão T. F. Barbosa,Catão T. F. Barbosa,Manickavasagom Alkondon,Yasco Aracava,Alfred Maelicke,Edson X. Albuquerque,Edson X. Albuquerque +6 more
TL;DR: The results establish acutely dissociated neurons as a simple and reliable preparation for the study of the pharmacology, kinetics and subcellular distribution of ligand-gated ion channels.
